## Summary

East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust procured orthopaedic consumables, specifically saw blades, drills and burrs, for use in its healthcare services. The requirement is categorised as medical consumables (CPV 33140000) and is for delivery to the Trust’s site at The Ridge, Saint Leonards-on-Sea, East Sussex. This is a goods requirement rather than a service or works contract. The procurement was made by East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust, which is the buying organisation. The products form part of the Total Orthopaedic Solutions 3 NHS Supply Chain framework, so the requirement concerns established orthopaedic surgical consumables supplied through that framework’s call-off arrangements. The recorded requirement is focused on saw blades and associated drilling and burr products rather than general medical supplies.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective call-off from the Total Orthopaedic Solutions 3 NHS Supply Chain Framework. The award was made to Stryker UK Limited on 21 July 2026 for £94,491. The contract period runs from 31 July 2026 to 31 August 2028. The estimated value is based on usage. The tender submission deadline was 20 July 2026 at 12 noon. East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust is the buyer. The requirement was not reserved for small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award is active, and the contract covers the orthopaedic saw blades, drills and burrs described in the requirement. The procurement used the framework call-off route rather than an open competition.

This award demonstrates established demand from East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust for orthopaedic surgical consumables, including saw blades, drills and burrs. A credible future competitor would need to supply these product types reliably for clinical use and understand the requirements of NHS healthcare procurement. The relevant route is participation in the Total Orthopaedic Solutions 3 NHS Supply Chain framework and its call-off competitions, rather than approaching the Trust through an unrestricted open tender. The selected supplier was a large organisation, and the opportunity was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. Businesses with a dependable orthopaedic consumables portfolio, NHS framework access and the operational capacity to support usage-led supply would be best placed to compete when comparable demand is next addressed.
